Jessie J "Sweet Talker" CD

This whole week I have been obsessed with Jessie J's new CD "Sweet Talker." I have always been a fan of hers, but I think this album is my favorite so far. I like the message in the song "Masterpiece." The song is basically saying if someone doesn't like you for what you are, who cares don't ever change who you are just because other people think you should.  One of my favorite lyrics in this song is, "I still fall on my face sometimes and I can't color inside the lines 'cause I'm perfectly incomplete." This is a good message because everyone has flaws, nobody is perfect and you just have to accept that.

"Ships in the Night" Review


For the past year, I have really enjoyed listening to indie pop music. The song “Ships in the Night” by Mat Kearney is one of my personal favorites. It has great beat and the lyrics are very original. One of my favorite lyrics is, “and if it all goes crashing into the sea if it’s just you and me trying to find the light.” I like this because he is comparing his relationship with this girl, to ships that keep passing by each other. This is showing how him and this girl are not seeing eye to eye and how difficult the relationship is, but how it is still worth saving. I think this is a good message on today’s divorce rate as well, because some people just give up on a relationship when things get tough, when they should really try to save it.
